Chapter Seventy-Two: The Shield That Covers the Heavens
And Xiaozhong and Xiaoyue walked together to find the soul of incense, and only after eating at a market did the two set off again, walking on the road not far from the city, they suddenly heard someone behind them shouting in a low voice: "Chief! Chiefβ"
Xiaozhong was very familiar with this voice, and when he turned around, he saw that it was Zheng Yan and Yuan Su, the two sons of the Zheng family and the Yuan family.
Seeing that no one was busy everywhere, he knelt on the ground and cried and shouted: "Chief! Chieftain! I've finally found youβ"
So he cried bitterly again, and Xiaozhong was puzzled and asked, "What's wrong?" Why don't you stay in the hundred-person village, isn't there another pirate invasion? β
Yuan Su, the son of the Yuan family, stopped crying and said: "The pirates didn't come, it's just that the whole village was killed." β
"What? Who did it? Xiaozhong asked angrily and sadly?
"I don't know, only the two of us went to the town to stock up on daily necessities. And when he returned, he saw that they were all dead. Zheng Yan, the son of the Zheng family, said.
"Yes, we have already found you, the leader, but we didn't dare to recognize each other, so we chased them out." Yuan Su said.
Xiaozhong and Xiaoyue helped the two of them, the two seemed to have fled for many days, their clothes were ragged, and their straw hats covered their faces, Xiaozhong looked at the two, and heard the two of them say these words, and he was angry for a while, and he couldn't help clenching his fists, and asked in a low voice: "Who is it?" β
Xiaoyue was sad when she saw Xiaozhong, and said, "Let's go over and have a look?" β
Xiaozhong arranged for the two brothers Zheng Yuan again, and ordered them to hide in the mountains and forests in the distance, so that they could hunt for a living, and make arrangements after going back to find out the news.
Then they flew in the direction of the hundred people village by the howling moon, and the people in the market only heard a whistling wind, and a golden light flashed in the sky, and they all looked up, and there was no movement, and they were busy with their own things.
When the two came to the village of 100 people, they saw that the wall of the village was still there, and the gate was still intact, but the village was silent, and Xiaozhong hurriedly found a few rooms but no one was found.
So he came to the wooden platform where he usually stayed, and the wooden platform was gone, and the wooden platform and its surroundings were charred as if they had been burned by fire.
"What's going on? Who did it? How many days have I been gone? Xiaozhong was confused for a while, and didn't know what to do.
Xiaoyue was also busy with Xiaozhong, and at this time she was also tired of running, so she waved her hand in front of her eyes, and saw that the people from the village appeared here again:
It was originally a safe and sound village, but suddenly a large group of soldiers and horses came, and before the villagers could take precautions, this large group of soldiers and horses was killed.
Xiaozhong was in the middle of it, seeing that Elder Zheng Yuan was killed one after another, and seeing that the children who fought on weekdays were also killed one by one, and those who rose up to resist were those strong men who had been trained by their own hands on weekdays, and they also picked up swords and guns to participate in the battle.
Although he killed a few soldiers, he was outnumbered after all, and there were too many soldiers and horses in this group, how could he withstand them, and they were all captured after a while.
The old and weak women and children in the village were also killed, and the men carried the corpses under the wooden platform he had made, lit a fire, and the corpses gradually burned down.
Xiaozhong was in it and couldn't extricate himself, he was very sad, and a sentence from Mr. Nandong kept flashing in his mind:
"If you save me alone, you know that there are still thousands of suffering, and you are willing to save them from fire and water."
"Instead of indulging in comfort with all living beings, why not be the guardian of all people, so that more people can truly live in comfort."
Thinking of this, I regret it, if I had kept the teacher's teachings in my heart that day, how could such a thing happen to protect them here.
Xiaozhong felt sorry for himself, and Xiaoyue patted Xiaozhong on the shoulder and comforted him.
"These people?" Xiao Zhong suddenly looked up and remembered: "Where have you seen these people's clothes?" β
I saw another person show a golden token: "This token, that Jin Ziqing also showed it that day, and he also took such a token to order his subordinates." "When I think of this, my heart is cold.
"Could it be him......" Xiaozhong whispered, but why?
In a trance, he remembered that day when Elder Yuan talked to him alone:
"We know that you must be the descendant of General Jin, chief, otherwise it would be impossible to have the Dragon Tail Sword. You don't seem to remember anything, but if the leader does leave us in the future, don't tell anyone about us here. β
"Yes, they are the only ones who know about the Hundred People Village except me. Didn't I recruit them, so I affected the people of Bairenzhai? β
"It must have been that Jin Ziqing who betrayed them." Xiaozhong made up his mind, and said: "This Jin Ziqing is really not a good person, I knew that this was the case, I should have killed him that day-"
"Filial Piety ......"
Xiaozhong raised his hand and said, "Xiaoyue, you don't have to persuade me, this Jin Ziqing really can't stay." β
Xiaozhong flew away after speaking.
Howling Moon knew what he was going to do, and followed.
Xiaozhong looked down while flying and tried to pull Ziqing out, but he didn't realize that it was already dark, thinking that this time it was in vain, and when he was disappointed, he saw Ziqing walking on the official road from a distance.
It turned out that Ziqing had never given up looking for Xiaozhong, and at this moment, following Xiaozhong's footsteps and sensing the breath of Xiaozhong, he went straight to the east.
The weather was very cool, and the dew was heavy, Xu is previous Yu Ziqing only felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, and said in his heart: "Xiaozhong, if I hadn't left you that night and had been guarding you, if there was no battle in Yuntai, what would be the situation now." β
After speaking, he coughed twice, tugged at the placket of his clothes, didn't feel much warmer, and continued to walk forward.
At this time, I felt a sultry heat in the sky, and a murderous aura struck, and when I looked up, I saw that it was Xiaozhong's palm.
Ziqing hurriedly dodged sideways.
Xiaozhong fell down and hurriedly asked: "It was you who betrayed the people of the Bairen Village!" You killed them, didn't you! β
"You keep urging me to do something for the people of the world, and what have you done? Indiscriminate killing of innocents! Evil! β
"Hundred people village? What happened? Ziqing was surprised.
"Pretend! Dare to quibble! β
"Xiaozhong, you must have misunderstood me, how could I kill the people of Bairen Village, they are also my comrades! How could I kill them? β
"If you still ask me, I'll make you sober!"
After saying that, the strength of the hands slowly condensed, and at this moment, the hands condensed two fires, which made Ziqing fearful, thinking that Xiaozhong was bare-handed that day, and the two palms would be fatal, and if he received these two palms today, he was afraid that he would instantly turn into ashes.
But now Xiaozhong's red eyes are really terrifying, and he doesn't know how to dodge, so he sees Xiaozhong raise his arms and palms together.
Ziqing was shocked, and when he was in despair, he heard someone shouting: "Ziqing! You have a shield to cover the sky, use it! β
It turned out that Xiaoyue had been playing Quantum Qing on the side for a long time, and she had already seen that this kid was not ordinary, especially when Xiaozhong took the palm, which aroused Ziqing's instinctive strength.
Seeing a faint metallic glow emanating from Ziqing's body, Xiaoyue saw the clue and called out.
Ziqing was shocked by the palm wind and flew out, and replied, "What is the Sky Shield?" β
"Hold your breath and imagine: You're the shield!" Xiaoyue said loudly.
Ziqing had no choice but to do so in a desperate situation, Xiaozhong's palm was blazing hot, and at this moment Ziqing crossed his arms in front of him, seeing that Xiaozhong was already close to him.
Suddenly, his right hand unconsciously slapped heavily on the ground, only to hear a muffled sound of "hum-", and a large shield stood between Xiaozhong Ziqing.
This shield seemed to be nothing, glowing with a strange light, and Xiaozhong's palm power was instantly turned into nothingness when it hit the shield.
Ziqing escaped the catastrophe, and looked at the sky-covering shield in front of him in shock, not believing that it was really made by himself, and the power was so great.
"Howling Moon!" Xiaozhong thought that in addition to Ziqing, seeing that he couldn't kill him, he summoned the divine dragon Xiaoyue.
Xiaoyue was also afraid that her personal strength was small, and the key was that it would not work, so she hurriedly turned into a dragon body and hurriedly stopped: "Filial piety, this person can't be killed!" β
"I am your master, you have to listen to me!" After speaking, he broke the dragon's horns and rode the dragon to attack again, but Ziqing used another force to cover the sky and the shield appeared between heaven and earth.
The dragon almost crashed into it, and hurriedly turned its head and flew upward.
For a while, the invisible shield stood between the heavens and the earth, and a golden dragon slashed through the middle of the shield, and the air seemed to be filled with golden quicksand, and in the silent night sky, this golden light was quiet and dazzling.
Xiaoyue roared into the sky and circled in the sky a few times before she settled down, and flew back to the ground with Xiaozhong, Xiaoyue turned into a human form and said angrily: "Xiaozhong, this person can't be killed!" β
"This is your shield to cover the sky!"
